Association between atherosclerosis and parenchymal lung involvement in systemic sclerosis
Background: Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune disease affecting connective tissues, (including epidermal, subepidermal, microvasculature, etc.), leading to various extent of end-organ damage. The leading cause of mortality among these patients is lung involvement. The cardiovascular events happen more frequently in patients suffering systemic scleroderma, comparing to healthy population. This...
متن کاملDIFFUSE PARENCHYMAl lUNG DISEASE
Diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) is a group of diseases that have the common characteristic of involving the pulmonary parenchyma diffusely. The pulmonary parenchyma consists of all structures distal to the terminal bronchiole. DPLD are numerous, there are some 150 different entities that qualify for the group. Most of these diseases are diagnosed according to common algorithm, but the e...
متن کاملDermatomyositis with parenchymal lung involvement.
decided to proceed to orchidectomy, which was performed through a right inguinal incision, the cord being clamped before division. The postoperative course was uneventful. Histologically the "picture of this tumour is in keeping with the Malignant Teratoma Intermediate (Sub Group A) of the Testicular Tumour Panel and Registry of the Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland." Subsequent...
متن کاملLung parenchymal mechanics in health and disease.
The mechanical properties of lung tissue are important determinants of lung physiological functions. The connective tissue is composed mainly of cells and extracellular matrix, where collagen and elastic fibers are the main determinants of lung tissue mechanical properties. These fibers have essentially different elastic properties, form a continuous network along the lungs, and are responsible...
متن کاملOxidant injury of lung parenchymal cells.
Hyperoxia and paraquat ingestion are two clinical examples of lung injury thought to be mediated by oxidant mechanisms. An in vitro cytotoxicity assay using freshly explanted 51Cr-labeled lung tissue as the target was used to quantify the ability of hyperoxia and paraquat to directly injure lung parenchymal cells in an environment where indirect mechanisms such as recruitment of inflammatory ce...
